#### 33.2.1 Creating table groups

You can assign group names to tables, and then apply properties to all tables in the group with a single setting. Each table can belong to one table group. You can create table groups two ways:

Create table groups in the configuration file

Create table groups with configuration PI markers.

Create table groups in the configuration file

To create table groups and assign tables to groups in the configuration file:

    [TableGroup]
    ; TableID = group name used in other Table sections for ID
    ; the filter first looks for TableID, then group
    TableID = tablegroupname

Create table groups with configuration PI markers

Another way to To create a table group, or assign tables to existing table groups, is to insert configuration PI markers in the tables in your DITA document, with content as follows:

    [TableGroup]=tablegroupname
